The biggest dissapointment is that racefans both North American and European have been robbed of the chance of seeing Manduro in his only North American start.

Couldn't agree more. He really was a superstar. For a horse to be temendous at all trips from a mile to twevle furlongs is just outstanding.
A great shame we couldn't see him at the Arc or the Breeders Cup
